30 Bills in One Day!

September 9, 2008 at 7:35 pm | In Family, Memories | 4 Comments

Yesterday I found 30 Bills on my doorstep! WOW! I mean who gets 30 Bills in one day? How special are we? So far this has been an interesting month, but 30 Bills?! I mean really, who would do such a thing? Apparently people who love us.

Thanks Bill and Jennita. And Sue and Keith. And Jessi and Paul.

You see, this month Martina and I will celebrate our 30th wedding anniversary and our daughter Jessica has created a campaign to celebrate 30 years of blessings with 30 days of love. So far this month she or one of her henchmen has managed to deliver a gift or note every day. On the first we received a plant from Sue and Keith. Hanging from the plant were 30 days worth of affirmations and declarations of love from our dear friends, one for each day. Thanks Guys.

From Jessi and Paul we have received, 2 cards, one list of 30 “Schraderisms” a “Dirty 30 Party” box, the contents of which shall remained undisclosed, 30 Hershy’s Kisses, and 30 pink carnations.

Then yesterday Martina discovered a card and packet of photos from the Tibbetts on our front doorstep. The card made us feel loved by our friends. When I looked at the photos I became quite perplexed. You see, the top one was a great shot of Bill and Jennita and I figured cool, they dug up some pictures of all of us doing stuff together. So I continue to look through the pictures, the next one is Bill, so is the one after that, and the next, and the next…. you get the idea. Bill is in every photo. Now I’m really confused. I wonder did they grab the wrong package of pictures? I’m self-centered enough to think that if you’re going to give me a bunch of pictures as an expression of love, shouldn’t I be in at least one of them? Today Martina noticed that there were exactly 30 pictures of Bill or 30 Bills. Cool! Still don’t know what it means. Little help here!

  1. So here it is. We thought long and hard about what to give you. We wanted to be original. Flowers, no. Candy, no. Nutella, gummie bears, anchors, WHAT??? No, nothing was original enough. So Bill said no one would give them 30 Bill’s. That’s right who could come up with 30 pics of Bill(or why would you want to) So there you have it. Bill’s main concern was that giving these to an artist may in turn result in so sort of mosaic or collage at Christmas! We love you both so very much. Hope you got a good 30 laughs worth!!! Maybe you’ll get 30 comments on here too….

  2. Thanks so much guys, we did get a chuckle, and today there were 30 roses from Chasity & AJ. Boy are we loved! Thanks Everybody!

  3. Whoo Hoo! You are bloggin again! 30th Anniversary, huh? Congrats for hanging in there…or maybe the hurrahs should go to Martina! I am looking forward to what surprises may lie ahead in the days to come. I know those Sandals folks are super creative. I do wonder what was in the box?!? Fess up!

  4. Well here is #4 of 30 comments. Happy Anniversary. I’d give you 30 Les, but that would put you back to 0. All of this is very hard to understand…
